Toolbar    : Inquiry Tools (CP) 
      Menu       : CADPower -> Inquiry -> Display angle between two lines

CmdLine   : CP_ANGLE 


This command determines the two angles (acute and obtuse) between two selected lines. The lines can either be Line objects or segments from polylines. The computed angle is displayed on the screen. 

Select first line: (select the first line segment)
Select second line: (select the second line segment)
The two angles between the line segments are 26.54 degs and 153.46 degs

      Menu       :CADPower -> Inquiry -> Compute Center of Gravity

CmdLine   : CP_CGRAV  


This command computes center of gravity of masses. The objects that you select should be polyline objects and they should define closed areas. The coordinates of the center of gravity are printed on screen and a point object is created at the CG location.

      Menu       : CADPower -> Inquiry -> Compute running distance/perimeter

CmdLine  : CP_PERIMETR 


This command can be used to compute perimeter and area from picked points or from objects like lines, polylines and circles. The perimeter and area are displayed on the screen as the user picks the points. The enclosing polygon area is displayed at the end of the command.

The last computed perimeter is stored in memory and can be used in subsequent runs of this command.

Toolbar    : Inquiry Tools (CP) 
      Menu       : CADPower -> Inquiry -> Object Selection Browser

CmdLine   : CP_VISIT 

The CP_VISIT command is an interactive pan through a selection of objects. It allows to visit (by panning each object in the selection to the screen center) all elements of a selection set. This can be a useful tool in quality control and error checking situations when you wish to step through a selection of objects and examine them one by one. The command offers sub-options like Next, Previous and GoTo to navigate through the selection set sequentially or randomly. There are also options to set the current zoom factors and highlight color. The CP_VISIT command maintains an internal pointer to the current object being visited (or borwsed through), so it is possible to resume the browsing at any point even after the main command has been exited. To achieve this purpose, two more related commands, CP_NEXT and CP_PREV are provided to enable an forward and reverse browse through the selection from the current object position. 

Note: CP_NEXT and CP_PREV commands are related only to CP_VISIT command and therefore cannot be used independently.

      Menu        : CADPower -> Inquiry -> Quick elevation Info

CmdLine    : CP_QUERY


The CP_QUERY command displays the elevation of the object at the location of the picked point.

Note:  CCP_QUERY command is by default not enabled. To enable it, type CP_DEFMACROS at the command prompt.



Toolbar    : Inquiry Tools (CP) 
      Menu       : CADPower -> Inquiry -> Enhanced DIST command

CmdLine   : CP_DXY


The CP_DXY command is an extension to the DIST command. In addition to the information given by the DIST command, CP_DXY also displays the horizontal projected distance between the two picked points, in case of 3D points.

Note:  CP_DXY command is by default not enabled. To enable it, type CP_DEFMACROS at the command prompt.
